ANGLING FOR ADVENTURE,ISLAMORADA-STYLE It is rumored that Islamorada is home to a larger fishing fleet per square mile than anywhere else in the world so it’s only natural that islanders stake their claim to the nickname “Sport Fishing Capital of the World.” This tropical paradise has the largest charter fleet available anywhere for both backcountry and deep-sea excursions. Islamorada's fishing grounds are unparalleled in the world. Here, world-class captains leave right from our docks. Whether you’re an experienced angler or baiting your first hook, our captains can take you anywhere—from the Atlantic shoreline to the mangrove-lined bays and canals of the Everglades—in search of a trophy-worthy fish including dolphin, yellowtail, bonefish, redfish, tarpon, and sea trout. From deep-sea fishing to fly-fishing, we know these waters well.
